What are the good places where our 14 year old can go off safely with the instructor for a lesson and learn comfortably? Do we need to invest in semi-private / private lessons or are group lessons fine? We are planning to spend 2-3 days (weekdays, not weekends) on the slopes and some of the places being considered are Sierra at Tahoe and Heavenly (expensive?); No point in Heavenly for a beginner. Someone suggest Diamond Peak, which was a good suggestion. Stay in North shore, or even in Reno for Mount Rose. Some places have good deals for first time skiers, for lesson/rental/lift. Check out REI for discount lift tickets for Mount Rose as well. At 14, your kid is past the el-cheapo ticket prices. Bear Valley, Kirkwood, Mt. Rose, Northstar, Sierra at Tahoe, Squaw Valley and Sugar Bowl have REI discounts at the Bay Area stores. |
